EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

During Executive’s employment, the Company will pay Executive a salary or other designated compensation (“Base Salary and Incentive”). Executive’s initial Base Salary and Incentive shall be determined by mutual agreement between the Company and Executive. The Company and Executive acknowledge and agree that the Company, in its sole discretion, may adjust the manner and amount of Executive’s Base Salary and Incentive (or any other elements of compensation) from time to time during Executive’s employment with the Company. The Base Salary and Incentive shall be paid to Executive consistent with the customary payroll practices of the Company. The Base Salary and Incentive shall be subject to standard payroll withholding deductions as required by law and withholding for benefits in which Executive elects to participate. To the extent stock options are made available to Executive, Executive’s receipt of any such stock options are contingent upon Executive executing and fully complying with the terms of this Agreement.

During Executive’s employment, Executive will be entitled to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans to which other employees of the Company are generally entitled to participate; provided, however, Executive’s entitlement to participate in such benefit plans is subject to the eligibility requirements and other terms and conditions of such benefit plans. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole discretion, may change, amend or discontinue any of its employee benefit plans or programs at any time during Executive’s employment with the Company, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate the Company to institute, maintain or refrain from changing, amending or discontinuing any benefit plan or program.

Pay. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment, it shall pay Executive, as severance pay, an amount equivalent to twelve (12) months of Executive’s base salary, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions. Payment will be made ratably over the twelve (12) month period immediately following the termination of Executive’s employment (the "Severance Period"), consistent with the customary payroll practices of the Company. Provided, however, Executive will not be entitled to the severance discussed in this Section 1.7(a) if Executive voluntarily resigns his employment or if the Company terminates his employment for Cause (as defined below). Provided further that any unpaid severance due to Executive will be reduced by an amount equal to the gross wages Executive earns from other employment (including self employment) during the Severance Period. During the Severance Period, Executive agrees to notify the Company's then current Chief Human Resources Officer within seven (7) calendar days of Executive obtaining other employment (including self employment) and will notify the Company of the amount of the gross monthly wages paid pursuant to such employment.

Additional Insurance Stipend. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment, the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum stipend equal to 167% of the product of twelve (12) times the monthly COBRA premium that corresponds, as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment, to the health, dental, and vision coverage that Executive had in effect under the Company’s health, dental and vision plans immediately prior to termination of employment. The stipend will be subject to all applicable withholdings and deductions, and will be paid to Executive on the same payroll date as the first installment of severance pay described above in Section 1.7(a). Executive may apply the stipend towards Executive’s purchase of COBRA continuation coverage or for any other purpose. Provided, however, Executive will not be entitled to any payment from the Company as described in this Section 1.7(b) if Executive voluntarily resigns his employment or if the Company terminates his employment for Cause (as defined below).

Outplacement Assistance. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment, the Company will provide Executive with outplacement services for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of termination to assist Executive in his search for new employment. Such outplacement services shall be consistent with those that the Company has provided to former employees. Provided, however, Executive will not be entitled to the outplacement benefits discussed in this Section 1.7(c) if Executive voluntarily resigns his employment or if the Company terminates his employment for Cause (as defined below).

Termination Because Of Change In Control.

If the Company terminates Executive’s employment within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined below), the Company shall pay Executive, as severance pay, an amount equivalent to twelve (12) months of Executive’s base salary, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions. Payment will be made ratably over the twelve (12) month period immediately following the termination of Executive’s employment, (the "Change in Control Severance Period") consistent with the customary payroll practices of the Company. Provided, however, Executive will not be entitled to the severance discussed in this Section 1.7(d)(i) if Executive voluntarily resigns his employment or if the Company terminates his employment for Cause (as defined below). Provided further that any unpaid severance due to Executive will be reduced by an amount equal to the gross wages Executive earns from other employment (including self employment) during the Change in Control Severance Period. During the Change in Control Severance Period, Executive agrees to notify the Company's then current Chief Human Resources Officer within seven (7)

Subject to the procedural conditions prescribed below, the Company shall also provide Executive with the severance benefits set forth in Subsection 1.7(d)(i) above upon any voluntary resignation of Executive if any one (1) of the following events occurs within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined below):

A material diminution in Executive’s base compensation from the level of such base compensation immediately prior to the Change in Control (as defined below).

A material diminution in Executive’s authority, duties, or responsibilities from his authority, duties, or responsibilities immediately prior to the Change in Control (as defined below).

A material change in the geographic location at which Executive is assigned to perform his duties and responsibilities on behalf of the Company from such geographic location immediately prior to the Change in Control (as defined below).

If Executive is entitled to severance benefits under this Section 1.7(d) (under either (i) or (ii) of such Section), the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum stipend equal to 167% of the product of twelve (12) times the monthly COBRA premium that corresponds, as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment, to the health, dental, and vision coverage that Executive had in effect under the Company’s health, dental and vision plans immediately prior to termination of employment. The stipend will be subject to all applicable withholdings and deductions, and will be paid to Executive on the same payroll date as the first installment of severance pay described above in this Section 1.7(d). Executive may apply the stipend towards Executive’s purchase of COBRA continuation coverage or for any other purpose. Provided, however, Executive will not be entitled to any payment from the Company towards COBRA premiums as described in this Section 1.7(d)(iii) if Executive voluntarily resigns his employment (other than pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.7(d)(ii)) or if the Company terminates his employment for Cause (as defined below).

If the Company terminates Executive’s employment, or if Executive voluntarily resigns, within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, and if Executive receives severance benefits under this Section 1.7(d), Executive forfeits, and is not eligible for, severance benefits under Section 1.7(a) and (b).

Confidentiality. Executive agrees that receipt of the severance described in Sections 1.7(a), (b), (c), and (d) will remain confidential between Executive and Executive’s counsel (if any), and will not be revealed to anyone else whatsoever (except Executive’s spouse or tax preparer who shall also be bound by this confidentiality provision) unless under subpoena or court order.
